Analytical and numerical study of electrical discharges caused by the presence of cumulonimbus clouds observed in the chadian atmosphere

The study of electrical phenomena in the atmosphere is very interesting because it allows us to predict the dangers caused by lightning currents, which result from an electrical discharge from an existing cumulonimbus cloud. Simulation of the electrostatic properties of a possible discharge from the cumulonimbus cloud, observed in N'Djamena, shows that lightning can occur with an electric field able to ionize molecules in the surrounding environment, and a very intense electrostatic potential, similar to high-voltage electrical discharges.
